I've tried 10FPS, didn't feel right.
Looks like 60FPS works for me the best.
Also, what about the Completion Time in statistics?
Now I want to know if playing the TSK campaign on Remake won't be drastically different than in the original TSK. Any major changes? (besides fish, and marketplace)

I actually gave the Remake a try.
Played a bit of TSK 1.
Now I would have to play TSK 1 on the orignal game to compare the two, but it's 1am, and there's no speed up in TSK :D

What do you mean by "Completion Time in statistics"?

KaM Remake shouldn't be drastically different. In fact they should be very similar. If you find differences let us know and we might be able to fix them (assuming they are negative differences). The market is blocked in the original campaigns.

Is Completion Time in original TSK dependable on the FPS, as in the more FPS I have, the faster it is, than it should be?
I now know in Remake this is done properly, no matter what FPS.

I might do so.
Anyways, I'll stick with 60FPS on original TSK.
I will however test Windows 2000/XP/8 on my other computer and see which gives the best results.
And also test myself the whole Completion Time thing.
Thanks Lewin for explaining everything.

I've tested KaM: TSK on Windows 8.1, works the best. Proper framerate, no ddraw.dll needed, simply awesome. Did TSK01 in 00:17 on it. I would recommend playing the TSK on Windows 8.1, if anyone has the need as I do :)

Good to hear it's working :).

Btw, TSK01 is beatable in 0:07 in original KaM ;).

I did it in 00:17 as a test, not a speedrun, I still need more practice :D
And yes, for some games, such as original KaM, Windows 8 is better, but for some other games, it might be worse, it's all a matter of testing.
